Suffolk GOP Calls On PSEG Long Island To Compensate Long Island Families

Senator Phil Boyle joined with the four candidates for New York State Senate to demand that the leadership of PSEG Long Island immediately reimburse families who lost food and medicine due to the utility’s power outage failure. The GOP calls for PSEG-LI’s management to immediately follow the lead of Con Ed which announced that they would reimburse their customers for the losses caused by outages that lasted over 48 hours.

The five members of the future Suffolk Senate Republican Delegation also called on Long Island’s Democratic Senate delegation to get more involved in the effort to protect Long Island ratepayers. While the Senate Democrats have been issuing public statements and scheduling hearings, there has been a clear lack of action and Long Islanders need everyone in public office to fight for them.

Suffolk County Republicans Renew Call For Independent Nursing Home Death Hearing

Following this week’s meaningless hearing on the nursing home COVID-19 debacle, the Suffolk County Republican Committee again joined together to call for an independent hearing into the travesty. As many are well aware, missteps by the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) throughout the ongoing health crisis contributed directly to the death of 6,500 of our state’s seniors by requiring nursing homes and assisted living facilities to readmit COVID-19 positive residents even though this put other residents and staff at a higher risk of infection.

But, during the hearing, the Senate and Assembly Democrats allowed NYSDOH Commissioner Howard Zucker to present a PowerPoint which offered the same talking points that the administration has spewed since the crisis began and to avoid taking full responsibility for the issue that the NYSDOH’s policy caused. The Democratic hearing, which was conducted virtually, resulted in an endless amount of dialogue which delivered absolutely no answers for the families of those who died from the state’s reckless policies.

MEDFORD, NY - It’s been nearly two weeks since radical scientist Nancy Goroff narrowly secured the Democratic nomination to challenge Congressman Lee Zeldin (R, NY-1), and since that time Goroff has refused to answer calls to explain her support for the Bill de Blasio-style defunding of local law enforcement.

Radical Scientist Nancy Goroff Concocting Plan to Deceive Voters

“Make no mistake, Goroff has spent years helping to concoct liberal policies and causes resulting in failed experiments like the jobs-crushing Green New Deal which would hoist trillions of dollars in new taxes on Long Islanders and other families around the country,” the Suffolk Republican Leader said. “Her radical policies and high tax agenda are more the stuff of science fiction than the prescription needed to get Long Island’s economy going again.”

Gene Murray condemns Democrats, Scapegoats, and Knee-Jerk Reactions

Radical democrats take a page from their old playbook and haven’t learned any lesson from the disastrous Bail Reform Bill that they passed. They now quickly repealed Civil Rights Law 50-a, stripping police of the right to keep personnel records private. This included unfounded and unsubstantiated allegations and personal information. As usual, New York State democratic politicians are rushed to pass a law without any public debate or conversation with law enforcement.
